Confused Honeymooners

Hello there,

1.) That's unfortunate, what websites did you use to search for accommodations? If everything is fully booked, then you could look at staying around Nagano city. The advantage here is that you'll have good access to most places in the area and can visit Jigokudani Snow Money Park. Nagano city is also served by the Shinkansen, so travel on to Tokyo / Takayama will be easy.

.2) Definately the JR Pass! A 7 day JR Pass would be best, especially if you could add in travel to Nozawa Onsen and return to Tokyo before it expires - that would however require a small change of plans. Otherwise I'd advise a one way Tokyo - Nozowa onsen and then use a 7 day JR Pass when you travel back to Tokyo/Takayama.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Hi Daniel-San

Thanks for your reply.

We used the nozawahotel.com, agoda, booking.com and hotel.com and all replies the same. Any other websites to suggest?

From Nagano City, are there any go skiing places nearby for beginners?

Please advise.

Thank you.

Hi again!

Try Japanican, Rakuten travel or JNTO, these websites are focused on traveling in Japan and usually can offer you more than global booking websites.

Nozawa is within reasonable distance from Nagano. There are many though here is a complete list. A very popular alternative, is Hakuba, also not too far from Nagano.

Hope this helps too :)
Daniel
